Best Legends in SMB 4
The legends that stand out manage to do so primarily due to their high base stats and amazing Traits. Without further delay, here are the best legends in SMB 4:
5. Nolan Ryan
Nolan Ryan shines as an A Tier legend in SMB 4 due to his 99 Velocity and 98 Junk stats. He is an amazing pitcher with these stats and his Traits make him even better.
“K Collector” gives him 8/15/30 Velocity and Junk when pitching with a 2-strike court, while “Elite 4F” provides increased pitch speed when pitching a 4-Seam Fastball.
Combine everything together and Nolan Ryan’s throws can be some of the hardest balls to catch in the game.
4. Mike Schmidt
Mike Schmidt is an A Tier legend with 96 Power, 98 Field, 96 Arm, and 79 Speed. While he only has 54 Contact, his other stats make up for it.
Additionally, he has the “Magic Hands” Trait, which reduces the chance of a missed catch when jumping, sliding, or jumping by 12.5/25/50%. Combined with his high stats, Mike will be able to catch almost every ball with ease.
Lastly, his second Trait is “Clutch”, which makes him even better when the Pressure is high or extreme.
3. Hank Aaron
With an overall rank of A+, Hank Aaron shines due to his 99 Power, 98 Contact, and 87 Arm stats. While his Speed is on the lower side, it doesn’t matter as you’ll be hitting the ball out of the field most of the time.
Additionally, he features the “POW vs LHP” Trait, which increases his power by 10 when batting against a left-handed player.
2. Babe Ruth
Babe Ruth is an S Tier legend due to his versatility. He is a great pitcher and an even better hitter.
As a pitcher, he has 67 Velocity, 58 Accuracy, and 86 Junk. While he’s not the strongest pitcher, his high Junk stat will allow him to throw some tricky curve balls.
As a hitter, Babe Ruth shines due to his 99 Power and 96 Contact. In terms of Traits, his “Two Way” Trait reduces his fielding penalty by 50/75/100% while in the outfield, while his Volatile Trait makes his Mojo change at a 12.5/25/50% faster rate from play to play and game to game.
With Volatile, he can easily go from Neutral to On-Fire and even Jacked, which will make his pitches even better.
1. Randy Johnson
Randy Johnson is the best left-handed pitcher in SMB 4 and the best legend overall.
With an S rank, Randy features 98 Velocity, 86 Junk, and 74 Accuracy. On top of the already high velocity, he comes with the Trait “K Collector” which increases Velocity and Junk by 8/15/30 when pitching with a 2-strike court.
This way, he manages to throw the ball with immense power and curve, which makes it extremely challenging for the batter to hit it properly.
